Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of kitchen and bathroom technology, specifically to a filter basket that is easy to clean. Background Technology

[0002] To prevent solid debris from clogging drain pipes, a filter basket is installed at the bottom of the sink or in the floor drain. Traditional filter baskets have a fixed base, requiring the basket to be inverted to empty the solid debris into the trash can. Later, filter baskets with openable bottoms, such as CN112575851A and CN220725283U, were developed on the market. These allow users to empty the trash by pressing a button to open the bottom of the filter basket.

[0003] However, the bottom opening mechanism is only convenient for emptying the filter basket; for deeper filter baskets, cleaning the inner wall of the basket is not convenient enough.

[0004] In view of this, the inventor conducted in-depth research on the aforementioned deficiencies in the prior art, which led to the creation of this case. Utility Model Content

[0005] The main purpose of this utility model is to provide a filter basket that is easy to clean, featuring convenient emptying of garbage and cleaning of the inner wall of the filter basket.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the solution of this utility model is:

[0007] A filter basket that is easy to clean includes a filter basket body, the filter basket body having a receiving cavity and an upper opening at the top of the receiving cavity, and the filter basket body being provided with filter holes communicating with the receiving cavity; wherein, the filter basket body is composed of a first half-basket and a second half-basket, each of the first half-basket and the second half-basket having a portion of the upper opening and a portion of the receiving cavity; the first half-basket and the second half-basket are closed together to form the filter basket body; during cleaning, the first half-basket and the second half-basket can move relative to each other to expand the opening area of ​​the receiving cavity facing the outside.

[0008] Furthermore, both the first half-basket and the second half-basket have side walls and a bottom wall; a temporary connection structure that can be separated during cleaning is provided between at least one edge of the side wall of the first half-basket and the second half-basket; and filter holes are provided on both the side wall and the bottom wall.

[0009] Furthermore, the dividing surface between the first half-basket and the second half-basket is a vertical surface; a plug-in hole structure is also provided between the side walls of the first half-basket and the second half-basket; a set of temporary connection structures is provided on the side walls of the first half-basket and the second half-basket above and below the plug-in hole structure.

[0010] Furthermore, the temporary connection structure is a magnetic attraction structure or a snap-fit ​​structure; the filter holes on the lower sidewall of the receiving cavity are smaller than the filter holes on the upper sidewall of the receiving cavity.

[0011] Furthermore, during cleaning, the first half-basket and the second half-basket can be completely separated.

[0012] Furthermore, both the bottom of the first half-basket and the second half-basket are provided with downwardly extending scrapers.

[0013] Furthermore, the first half-basket and the second half-basket have identical structures; a temporary connection structure is provided between the bottom walls of the first half-basket and the second half-basket for separation during cleaning.

[0014] Furthermore, the first half-basket and the second half-basket are hinged to each other on the same side wall, and the temporary connection structure is located on the side wall away from the hinge axis; the upper ends of the first half-basket and the second half-basket are provided with an upper edge extending outward from the upper opening, and a V-shaped clearance notch is formed at the upper edge above the hinge axis on the side wall.

[0015] Furthermore, the bottom walls of the first half-basket and the second half-basket are hinged together.

[0016] Furthermore, the first half-basket and the second half-basket are provided with an upper edge extending outward from the upper opening, and a handle is provided on the upper edge.

[0017] With the above structure, the filter basket of this utility model, which is easy to clean, has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0018] 1. The filter body is formed by two halves, the first and second halves, which can be opened to increase the opening area of ​​the receiving cavity to the outside when cleaning is required, making it easy to empty the waste inside. At the same time, because the exposed area of ​​the receiving cavity is larger, it is easier for the user to clean the inner wall of the cavity.

[0019] Second, the first and second half-baskets can be completely separated, or they can be opened by hinge. This facilitates cleaning of the inner walls of the receiving cavities of the first and second half-baskets.

[0020] Third, by incorporating a scraper, after the first and second half-baskets are completely separated, the user can hold the first half-basket and use the scraper on the first half-basket to clean the interior of the second half-basket, causing dirt to fall off. Similarly, the scraper on the second half-basket can be used to clean the interior of the first half-basket.

[0021] Fourth, the filter holes at the lower part of the receiving cavity are smaller than those at the upper part of the receiving cavity, so that even if the dirt at the lower part of the side wall of the receiving cavity blocks the filter holes, the water can still be discharged in time through the filter holes at the upper part of the side wall of the receiving cavity.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, this utility model, by setting a movable and openable first half-basket and a second half-basket, increases the opening area of ​​the receiving cavity facing the outside during cleaning, making cleaning more convenient. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0038] To further explain the technical solution of this utility model, the following detailed description is provided through specific embodiments.

[0039] like Figures 1 to 13 As shown, this utility model relates to a filter basket that is easy to clean. It includes a filter basket body 10, which has a receiving cavity 11 and an upper opening 12 at the top of the receiving cavity 11. The filter basket body 10 is provided with filter holes 13 communicating with the receiving cavity 11. The filter basket body 10 is composed of a first half-basket 21 and a second half-basket 22. Both the first half-basket 21 and the second half-basket 22 have a portion of the upper opening 12 and a portion of the receiving cavity 11. The first half-basket 21 and the second half-basket 22 are closed to form the filter basket body 10. When cleaning, the first half-basket 21 and the second half-basket 22 can move relative to each other to expand the opening area of ​​the receiving cavity 11 facing the outside.

[0040] Thus, the filter basket of this utility model, which is easy to clean, consists of a first half-basket 21 and a second half-basket 22 forming the filter body. When cleaning is required, the first half-basket 21 and the second half-basket 22 can be opened to increase the opening area of ​​the receiving cavity 11 facing the outside, making it easy to empty the waste inside the receiving cavity 11. At the same time, because the exposed area of ​​the receiving cavity 11 is larger, the user can more easily clean the inner wall of the receiving cavity 11.

[0041] Preferably, both the first half-basket 21 and the second half-basket 22 have side walls 31 and bottom walls 32; the side of the enclosed filter basket is a cylindrical side wall 31; a temporary connection structure 40 for separation during cleaning is provided between at least one edge of the side walls 31 of the first half-basket 21 and the second half-basket 22; filter holes 13 are provided on both the side walls 31 and the bottom wall 32. The first half-basket 21 and the second half-basket 22 can be completely separated or opened by hinge. This facilitates cleaning of the inner walls of the receiving cavity 11 of the first half-basket 21 and the second half-basket 22.

[0042] Preferably, the dividing surface of the first half-basket 21 and the second half-basket 22 is a vertical surface; a plug block 51 and a plug hole 52 structure are also provided between the side walls 31 of the first half-basket 21 and the second half-basket 22; a set of temporary connection structures 40 are provided on the side walls 31 of the first half-basket 21 and the second half-basket 22 above and below the plug block 51 and plug hole 52 structure, respectively.

[0043] The temporary connection structure 40 is a magnetic structure (e.g., Figures 1 to 4 , Figures 7 to 11 The magnetic temporary connection structure 40 includes two magnets 4 that attract each other. Mounting cavities 41 are formed on the first half-basket 21 and the second half-basket 22 respectively for mounting the magnets 4 to fix them in place. The temporary connection structure 40 is a snap-fit ​​structure (e.g., ...). Figure 12 and Figure 13 The first half-basket 21 and the second half-basket 22 are temporarily fixed by the cooperation of the buckle body 61 and the buckle hole 62.

[0044] The insertion block 51 and insertion hole 52 structure assist in positioning the first half-basket 21 and the second half-basket 22, making the connection more stable; the temporary connection structure 40 serves to temporarily close the first half-basket 21 and the second half-basket 22, and can also be opened under the action of external force applied by the user.

[0045] Preferably, such as Figure 4 As shown, the filter holes 13 on the lower sidewall 31 of the receiving cavity 11 are smaller than those on the upper sidewall 31 of the receiving cavity 11. In this way, even if the dirt on the lower sidewall 31 of the receiving cavity 11 clogs the filter holes 13, the water can still be drained away in time through the filter holes 13 on the upper sidewall 31 of the receiving cavity 11.

[0046] As a first embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 2 As shown, during cleaning, the first half-basket 21 and the second half-basket 22 can be completely separated. This allows the user to grasp the first half-basket 21 and the second half-basket 22 with both hands and completely separate them for individual cleaning.

[0047] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, both the first half-basket 21 and the second half-basket 22 have downwardly extending scrapers 71 at their bottoms. Thus, by providing scrapers 71, after the first half-basket 21 and the second half-basket 22 are completely separated, the user can hold the first half-basket 21 and use the scrapers 71 on the first half-basket 21 to clean the interior of the second half-basket 22, causing dirt to fall off. Similarly, the scrapers 71 on the second half-basket 22 can also be used to clean the interior of the first half-basket 21.

[0048] Preferably, the first half-basket 21 and the second half-basket 22 are structurally identical. This means that during manufacturing, only identical half-baskets need to be produced, and the two identical half-baskets can be used as the first half-basket 21 and the second half-basket 22 respectively, significantly reducing production costs. To further improve the connection stability between the first half-basket 21 and the second half-basket 22, a temporary connection structure 40 is provided between the bottom walls 32 of the first half-basket 21 and the second half-basket 22, allowing for separation during cleaning.

[0049] Preferably, as a second embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 8 As shown, the first half-basket 21 and the second half-basket 22 are hinged to each other on the same side wall 31, and the temporary connection structure 40 is located on the side of the side wall 31 away from the hinge axis. The upper ends of the first half-basket 21 and the second half-basket 22 are provided with upper edges 72 extending outward from the upper opening 12, and a V-shaped clearance notch 721 is formed at the upper edge 72 above the hinge axis on the side wall 31. The basket can be opened by rotating the pivot on the side wall 31. After opening, the opening of the receiving cavity 11 facing the outside can be turned downward for easy dumping of garbage.

[0050] Preferably, as a third embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 10 As shown, the bottom walls 32 of the first half-basket 21 and the second half-basket 22 can also be hinged together.

[0051] Preferably, the upper ends of the first half-basket 21 and the second half-basket 22 are provided with an upper edge 72 extending outward from the upper opening 12, and a handle 73 is provided on the upper edge 72, the handle 73 being formed on the first half-basket 21 and the second half-basket 22 respectively.

[0052] The filter basket of this utility model is used to be placed in the drain cylinder 100 (e.g. Figures 5 to 7 As shown in the figure, the drain pipe 100 is used in floor drains, handwashing sink drains, etc.

[0053] Compared with the prior art, the present invention, by setting a movable and openable first half-basket 21 and a second half-basket 22, makes the opening area of ​​the receiving cavity 11 facing the outside larger during cleaning, making cleaning more convenient.

[0054] The above embodiments and figures are not intended to limit the product form and style of this utility model. Any appropriate changes or modifications made by those skilled in the art should be considered as not departing from the patent scope of this utility model.
